Hi.It appears everyone here has been very kind and respectful in helping you shed some light in your problem. I mentioned you should first address your mom first step.. try to find out if she's aware of how mean and rude she is treating people..then try to find out if she's stressed out perhaps sad.. next step after talking addressing the issue correct it.. If the behavior persist after all that then definitely she needs professional help.

A hot-tempered person must pay the penalty; rescue them, and you will have to do it again. Proverbs 19:19

Record her, or videotape her the next time she flips her lid, and play it back to her, and say, "mom is THIS really how you want to set a good example"??

Apparently your mom is insensitive and inconsiderate to others and seems to go out of her way to bully people. I hope you weren't there so as to spare the embarrassment. Is she this way at home too? If I were the store manager I would bar her permanently from entering the premises or using the drive-thru. Regardless, glad to have you join us. Welcome to CC.

It happens sometimes... sometimes people react to some situations without really thinking farther ahead, and seeing it for what it is. Things happen to people, and it happens like this for a reason because its a test on how they react to it...(who do you emulate during this test? Christ? or do you just go by whatever reactive emotion you feel at the moment?")
everyone has their own tests to take in life, its not about pass or fail even though passing is excellent but even in failure
that still gives room to grow and learn. Instead of being reactive to situations she might find it more useful to change her perception about those situations first, and to look into deeper meanings of what they really mean.

i'm gonna bet she was embarrased by her behavior. but,,,, when you have a chance tell her you were,, even if she wasn't. one of my pet peaves is we don't tell others when their behavior is unacceptable to us. and not in a mean way.. kids at school for example,,, a friend bullies someone? a simple "dude,, your not usualy a jerk to people like that" statement may make them rethink what they have done. in this case something like ,, "mom, i've never known you to be mean to people like that." makes her realise what she did was wrong . i'm not saying that will fix it, but she will know it bothered you. then drop it ,, its her issue to deal with.
